    My Thoughts on Voyager's Prospective Romances

    I haven't done Torres's prospective romances, but I'll give you that one in advance, since it's an easy one to classify. Torres/Vorik: This disastrous pairing began with a completely awkward and unwanted advance in engineering, and it ended with the two "lovebirds" kicking the crap out of each...

    Prodigy's Fate Sealed?

    True, but a hugely cut down season at that. 16 episodes down to 6. I may be wrong, but I’m sure those 6 were part of the Season 1 commission and were finished later than the others? I probably am dead wrong about that. Edit - NM. I’m wrong. 6 more episodes were commissioned after Season 1...

    Prodigy's Fate Sealed?

    It actually had good enough ratings to get it a second season on Saturday mornings when the rule for Saturday mornings in the 70s was 'one and done' - unless you were Scooby Doo, The Flintstones or Superfriends.

    Prodigy's Fate Sealed?

    It did okay, but finally low ratings put the kibosh on it. I’ve always said the best entry point for kids into Star Trek is to let them just watch one of the shows. As a kid, I could feel that Star Trek was a bit bigger and deeper than what I otherwise watched, but I liked that. Kids like to...

    Aviation Geeks unite?! Anybody else care about planes here?

    I wish the Commanche became a Operational Helicopter.

    Aviation Geeks unite?! Anybody else care about planes here?

    I wonder if it is possible to fast rope under auto-rotation—rope winched back at same rate of descent for a quiet way to put soldiers down—then crank up once they hide. That might explain the tail damage...

    Spoilers Russell T. Davies Returns to Doctor Who as New Showrunner

    If it gets the general mood across, why not. "You" lot then need to get the story straight. Its one thing if you find the development of the character not to your liking, its another to say that he was badly written, isn't it? Because I never got the impression that Peter Capaldi, comfortably...

    The General Anime Thread!

    Just watched the series finale for Lazarus. OOF. What squandered potential, all round. It had all the pieces necessary to become a compelling modern classic, only for the execution to undermine it at every turn. The writing was so ungodly underwhelming and underbaked that I'm agog anyone...

    Spoilers Russell T. Davies Returns to Doctor Who as New Showrunner

    Twelves attitude to Danny Pink was great. Because it was self loathing over the events of the Time War, recently dug up and sort of experienced again on Trenzalore. And Danny Pink’s dislike of the Doctor came from the *exact same place* which was the point. The Doctor wasn’t the ‘Officer’ class...

    Spoilers Russell T. Davies Returns to Doctor Who as New Showrunner

    I was reading the thread on "How Would You End Doctor Who for Good," and after sitting with it and thinking for ten, fifteen minutes, I decided, with both reluctance and certainty, that "The Big Bang" -- yes, the finale to Series 5 -- was the perfect ending for Doctor Who. Oh, I'd miss a lot...

    Spoilers Russell T. Davies Returns to Doctor Who as New Showrunner

    If you don't blank that out, you can't blame Chibnall and Whittaker for everything. So it has to be blanked out.

    Spoilers Russell T. Davies Returns to Doctor Who as New Showrunner

    Not to the general public. It was when he took over the ratings started to plunge. In particular people seem to have blanked out just how shockingly bad the ratings for his last series were.

    Spoilers Russell T. Davies Returns to Doctor Who as New Showrunner

    ...fantasy with an obvious abortion subtext that seemed to surprise its creators when people commented on it. The Capaldi era's nosedive in the ratings has been attributed to young fangirls missing Matt Smith, but the way the Doctor and his stories were written seem likely to have been a factor...

    Are there any good reasons to not want to be in the Federation?

    If I were a Klingon or Romulan or any other antagonistic species in TOS, I could think of a few reasons not to sign up for the Federation? A more interesting option would be the Halkans ("Mirror, Mirror") where they're just an edge regarding the coin of the two-sided mirror universes and the...
